I knew there was a reason I got that invite to Google Voice a few weeks ago… Dedicated Google Voice applications for Android and BlackBerry have been announced, and are ripe for the downloading. If you haven’t checked out Google Voice, it used to be GrandCentral, an online hub to manage voice services, like saved SMS messages, transcribing voicemail, and a bunch of other handy functions I haven’t had a chance to try yet since it isn’t available in Canada. An iPhone version of Google Voice is on the way, too, if that’s your kind of thing, and number portability is also in the works. Check out Google Voice for more info, just remember that it’s still by invite only. If you’re already a member, go to m.google.com/voice on your mobile browser to pick up the app.
